Summary

Engaging Picture Book Helps 3- to 6-Year-Olds Be Brave 
 
· meet a little dog with big fears who learns to be brave 
· kids discover they're not alone and they don't have to feel afraid 
· from counselor and bestselling author Sissy Goff 
 
"Lots of things scared Lucy . . . car rides . . . bigger dogs . . . even hiccups. When someone hiccupped near her, she would try to climb on her mom's head, thinking she would be safe up there. It didn't help." 
 
Lucy is a small dog with big fears. Her fears try to trick her into believing things that aren't true--like she can't do things on her own or other dogs are mean and dangerous. Believing these things makes her feel even smaller than she really is! 
 
But Lucy has courage hidden on the inside. To bring it out, she just needs a little help from someone who loves her. 
 
Inspired by her fellow therapist--who happens to be ankle-high and covered in fur--veteran counselor Sissy Goff tells an encouraging story of how love is bigger than fear. It's the secret to helping every puppy and person be brave.
